About this image

I am sorry for this public rant but I am so done with Oblivion screwing me over. Even without my three favourite mods (Oblivion Reloaded, Better Cities and Unique Landscapes) I am not able to play Oblivion without getting these random crashes. It is so annoying that when I finally start enjoying Oblivion like I once did the game starts crashing like never before. It seems like the game just want mew to go in, take a screenshot for Sexy Wednesday and go out again...

Only plus side is I found out that Qarl Texture Pack might be the source of my problem. Going for the Redimized version now, otherwise not texure pack for me. 

EDIT: Woohoo! Removing Qarl Texture Pack+ Installing 4GB patch seemed to do the trick! I can now even have Unique Landscape and Better cities again (for quite a big FPS decrease ofcourse). Might try out and see how QTP Redimized affects my game, but I am one happy modder again.

    Ah-hah! Is this it why my game is so stable these days? In my new build I did not include QTP3 Redimized ... I have _always_ been using it before. Hmmm, would be worth running some tests.

      Right now I am trying Redimized and it is working better than the regular Qarls Texture Pack. HOWEVER, I really like using heavier mods like Better Cities and Unique Landscape as well as quite a performance killing ENB. I'll probably get rid of all my texture mods so I can play without having to turn of ENB in some areas.

      Yeah, I thought, I have dont-even-know-how-many GB of video RAM, FPS aplenty, I can afford expensive textures everywhere-- but no, probably not. Btw. ReShade 3 is also interesting with its new live menu.

    I just came to this after seeing the lovely work you've done on the two vanilla houses.
    Glad to see you've resolved your crash issues; I certainly understand that frustration with the Elderacrolls games, and I *definitely second the suggestion of MoreHeap, below. I use MoreHeap, and the 4 GB patch very successfully with: Oblivion Reloaded, Unique Landscapes, Cinematic Chic ENB, Window Lighting System, All Natural Snu's Dungeons and a lot of others. I do occasionally crash with that setup, but not very often... my current Oblivion setup is more stable and more beautiful than it ever has been. (This is even without ENBoost, because for some bizarre reason, ENbbost is not compatible with ENBs in Oblivion)

    btw, I really love what you have done with the vanilla houses so far! I haven't installed either yet, but I likely will in the near future.

    You should also have a look at MoreHeap, Oblivion Stutter Remover, EngineBugFixes and ENBoost (if you don't use ENB graphics in your playthrough). They will make your game even more stable
